Programming Overview: Feb. 26 – Mar. 4

Friday Night Lights Week 1 is in the books and really showed the unity of our group. Scores will be tallied and updated on the back whiteboard (on the wood wall) over the next couple of days. It was awesome to see teams and athletes come together and go through “the suck” which was 18.1!

This Friday, and for the next four weeks, we get ready to do it all again with 18.2 dropping on Thursday evening. If your team didn’t win the spirit award this past week then this Friday is your chance to make up some points!

Perform Intentional Acts of Kindness This Week

Simple Instructions:

Each day, consciously perform an act of kindness. It can be as small as you like.

Examples might include something as simple as holding the door open for the person walking behind you when you’re in a hurry or taking time to thank someone who offered you help or support. There is no lower limit to kindness.

At the end of each day, reflect back on the acts you did or didn’t perform. If you didn’t perform an intentional act of kindness, consider why. Was it a lack of opportunity? Did you forget? Were you self-conscious?

Consider any opportunities you might have missed.

Score the practice as a “yes” only if you intentionally performed an act of kindness.
